Hey guys,

 

I have a problem with some strings after I send them from the Client to the server.

I need to split the string and after I split it the formatting is different then it is server side.

argh... long text short Question printf outputs me the following Strings:

@Potato

@Potato@

 

The first one is the output after I receive it with the server and Split it.

The Problem is I need it to get a value out of a HashMap can anybody help me?

And maybe explain me for what kind of formatting "@" stands for?

 

Thanks in advance - JTK222

Show some code?

private int recipeID;
private Block craftingStation;
private int stationID;
private String category;
public PacketCraft(){}

public PacketCraft(Block craftingStation,String Category, int recipeID){
	this.recipeID = recipeID;
	this.stationID = Block.getIdFromBlock(craftingStation);
	this.category = Category;
}

@Override
public void fromBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	String[] temp = new String(Arrays.copyOfRange(buf.array(),1,buf.array().length)).split(";");
	recipeID = Integer.parseInt(temp[0]);
	stationID = Integer.parseInt(temp[1]);
	category = temp[2];

}

@Override
public void toBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
	String temp = String.valueOf(recipeID) + ";" + String.valueOf(stationID) + ";" + category;
	buf.writeBytes(temp.getBytes());
}

@Override
public void handleClientSide(PacketCraft message, EntityPlayer player) {}

@Override
public void handleServerSide(PacketCraft message, EntityPlayer player) {
CraftingManager.craftItem(message.stationID,message.category,message.recipeID,player);
}

 

Here it is. Haven't though that it might be important as I though its something more related to String in general

Ok, why the duck are you encoding the values into a string?  Just write them all to the bytebuffer.

To say the truth I am not really understanding how the bytebuffer stuff is working my English isn't very good

and that creates the problem that googling explanations isn't the easiest thing when you don't know which words to use.

I have managed to write this Code after a few hours of google and maybe a few more hours of trial and error.

 

How could I read the Inserted Variables separately?

A Link to a good explaining tutorial would be a big help.

In toByes you write the two ints and the String you're sending to the ByteBuf and in fromBytes you read the two ints and the String from the ByteBuffer.

 

@Override
public void fromBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
    recipeID = buf.readInt();
    stationID = buf.readInt();
    category = ByteBufUtils.readUTF8String(buf);
}

@Override
public void toBytes(ByteBuf buf) {
    buf.writeInt(recipeID);
    buf.writeInt(stationID);
    ByteBufUtils.writeUTF8String(buf, category);
}

Oh man its so easy and I had so much Trouble with it *facepalm*

Big thx haven't known that this is existing:

ByteBufUtils.writeUTF8String(buf, category);

Makes a lot easier ^^

Big thanks - JTK222
